Storing water power

The new ELI today is another in our 'net zero' emissions series - 'Matching supply and demand using stored water; pumped storage hydroelectric schemes – just-in-time power'.

This activity explores how pumped storage hydroelectric schemes may make an important future contribution to government ‘net-zero’ targets by storing power to boost sources with variable output, such as wind or solar.

Our complete series on reaching 'net zero' emissions targets may be found here. All were as accurate as possible when they were written in spring 2021.
